A Drug that Makes Monogamous Men More Monogamous?

11/15/2012

Scientists have recently discovered that the hormone
oxytocin, also known as the "cuddling hormone," may be helpful in preventing men with a
wandering eye from, well, wandering.

The hormone operates by inducing feelings of trust and
bonding, making a man in a monogamous relationship likely to feel more loyal
to his female counterpart. In tests, the men in serious relationships who sniffed
the hormone maintained an additional 6.5 inches away from the beautiful woman
in the room with them – or even just her photo – as compared to the men who did
not ingest the hormone.

How far would you go to get your bird in line?

So what we wanted to know was what else would you want to see
changed by a tiny miracle drug? Here’s what we thought up – tell us which you’d prefer and submit some
of your own!

A drug that makes your husband enjoy cleaning the house

A drug that makes your husband excited about being your new
personal chef!

A drug that keeps your husband from snoring

A drug that makes your boyfriend tell you that you look
pretty – every day!

A drug that, while simultaneously making your boyfriend want to give you a back massage, has him
say things like “You know, Babe, you were
right about that fight we had last night. I’m sorry I ever second-guessed you.”

A drug that makes your husband get along with your
parents (or better yet – a drug that helps you
get along with your in-laws)

A drug that makes your boyfriend excited about that awesome chick flick
you’ve been dying to see

A drug that has your boyfriend saying: “You know what, I’m skipping Sunday game day
with the boys. What I really want to do is sit around and talk with you and the
girls”

Think about it, if you could inch your husband in
your “right direction” with a common hormone, would you? To read more about the

Im sorry but I would refuse to take a pill like that. Its very degrading. A relationship goes both ways, both man and woman have to give and take. If you want a lapdog then go buy you a dog and stop changing people.
